phlegmmo:If you pay the company $6,000, they beat your F-body Camaro with an ugly stick until it looks like a beached whale. Er, until it sort-of resembles a 1957 Chevy.[img.gawkerassets.com image 640x360]MY EYES!

flaminio:kroonermanblack: I want to know where they shop for BMW 3 series that you can get one for 16k? I just googled it and they run a lot more than that new, unless they have some insane depreciation.

You have to go back a few years, but the point still stands: an early 2000s M3 is far and away better than the POS in TFA.

Apparently we have a pretty bad problem around here with certain guys trying to take early 2000's BMW 323's and converting them to faux M3's.

I can respect good body work even though there is a large amount of WTF were you thinking going on but I have got to say the Lamborghini Reventon Camaro was the worst of the bunch. The front end work is passingly done but omg the rear fenders look like a blind man tried to do the work.

I give that guy a pass. He built it out of found materials, using little more than spit, duct tape and binder twine.

It's an interesting story.

Not that one, the one based off of the camaro, #3. I can respect the China one.

This was my favorite replica car find. There were far more pictures (which apparently no longer exist) but my favorite feature were the locks. As I remember it, the door panels were brought out a few inches with wood & plaster so the key for the car was screwed to a long metal bar so it could actually reach the lock, which was tucked back behind the woodwork.

Wow. Just.... Wow.

The engine must've died from all that extra weight. Well, also the douche-bag driving often found with such people.

Ive seent he trend as well. They seem to think they are as fast as M3s as well. It only takes a couple car lengths to remind them they arent.

That used to be a Pontiac Sunfire GT...a fairly decent car in its own right. Shame they farked it up so bad.

/If it had a decent interior, and you know, windshields and shiat, and not not really shiatty mileage from being made of plate mail.//has that Mad Max armored frankenstein vibe going on.///absolutely would not give a shiat if it ever got dirty, or scratched////of course, it would end up a rust bucket, would have to coat it with something

omeganuepsilon:Screw you guys! I would drive the shiat out of this car:

Beautiful. Thanks for digging that up, I had tried but the filters at work are pretty picky about what sites I can visit.

I would think that even if someone was briefly fooled while seeing it at a stop light, they would wonder why the car sounds like any other heavily abused economy car on the road.
